It’s really pleasing and depressing at the same time to see him doing so well. He’s a fabulous player and he’s going to have a great career down under. He gave us nothing but his best in every game so good luck to him.

Did we get a fee for him, or did we let him go for free?

He’s had a blistering start to his NRL career, yesterday he made the most meters,most breaks and most tackles and has won the fans over. Sutton has impressed too.
I take pride in it really but wish he was still over here.

Part of me wanted him to completely flop but im thrilled hes doing well. A bigger loss than ST ever was...

I hope he smashes it for at least 5 years down there

I imagine he will be back in 2020 or 2021.
How long can he stay away from his family/daughter?

I don’t agree with that, people seem to forget how good Sam was in his first spell, he was head and shoulders above anything else in the league. Bateman is a top top player but I don’t think he was that good.

Yep, pre-knee injury Tomkins was sensational.

A shadow of the player on his return.

It’s a sign of a top class player that he’s been able to reinvent himself and he’s playing in a totally different way nowadays. You’d take the old Tomkins all day long but he’s still a fantastic player.

Tomkins is one of those players who can really read a game.
